What this transaction means for investors
Grab has been dealing with a mixed bag of results over the last year, as seen in its recent second-quarter 2026 earnings report. While revenue grew 22% to $997 million, costs also noticeably increased. Regional corporate costs increased from the prior-year period by $12 million to $104 million. That seems to be what shareholders are largely wrestling with, as sales are rising right along with costs. Over the last year, as of this writing, Grab's stock price has dropped almost 30%, while the S&P 500 is up nearly 19% over the same period. That said, while a sale of 30,000 shares may sound like a lot, Kandal still directly owns nearly 4 million shares, indicating continued alignment with the company's future success. The transaction was also pre-established, so it wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision.
The good news for shareholders is that analysts appear extremely bullish on this stock. Of the 25 who cover it, every single one rates the stock a buy. The median one-year price target is $5.90, representing a 70.5% gain from the Sept. 1 closing price of $3.46. The group's highest price target is $8, representing a 131.2% gain. And even the lowest target, $4.60, would represent a 32.9% gain.
